What do you think of the new law out about the new child seats in cars?

It is based on age, weight, & height with no clarity on priority. Is a police officer going to take the child out of the car and measure it's height and then weigh it, it is typical of resent changes to laws unenforcible,

any law that helps save a childs life is a good one

Wasn't aware of any new laws on the books. I do think it's a shame you have to mandate how to protect children. Parents should do it automatically. I see 2 year old children running loose in vehicles all the time.

I didn't know about a new carseat, but I wish the cops would stop pick-up trucks with little kids in the back. I see it all the time.

Which law is that? I like the child seat law because it protects our children. If you're referring to the booster seat law I'm all for it. I have seen a child thrown out of a car window in a collision.

it can only be a good thing...if it saves one life then it is worth it but we will still see selfish parents having babies on laps in the front seat and kida not belted on the back

It is a good idea in principle, but for familes with 3+ children it will be very difficult!

what is it??

In principle it is a good idea, although not many six and seven year olds are goning to be happy having to go back into a car seat if they are under the height limit like my neice! It is all about being sensible and surely no responsible parent would fail to strap their child in when in the car. I know that some idiots don't bother but I am not sure that the introduction of a new law will change that as they are breaking the law already! Of course then there is the question of taxis, buses etc

Bloody stupid

booster seats are to let the little buggers see out, sod all to do with safety.

im not happy about it really because im only 4.3 ft does this mean i need a booster seat too; to drive my car i dont want to break the law

Shouldn't this sort of thing be advice, rather than law? Next thing you know, there will be a legal limit to how many calories you can eat in a day.

i think any law that protects children in cars is great. they need it cars were not built with kids in mind because if they did then you would have to get a new car as you kid gets bigger. the safey seats are not that expencive and most of the time the can be converted as the kid grows.

Its stupid because I don't hae kids I don't need child seats but what if I had a child in my car - mates kid or similar

Mr Glenn

Well, you'd think responsible parents would already take steps to ensure the safety of their children - but the world is full of idiots so the Government has to pass annoying laws to make sure the irresponsible parents don't endanger their kids.
So what is there to complain about?

i feel its the best.. i would not want to be told that a child died and would hav been saved if he had the car seat.. its just for safetly the bigs kids at 12- would get used to it
